DIY Steps To Clear A Clogged Drain
How To Clean A Drain Using Natural Cleaning Solutions
If the water in the sink would not drain your first line of defense is to try to use a plunger. When using a plunger make sure to plug the overflow hole with a finger or a cloth. After using a plunger for several times, you should notice that the sink begin draining.
If this doesn’t help, then the next step is to try to use some cleaning solutions. We recommend using alway natural remedies and not some harsh chemicals which can be harmful to nature and your drain. All you will need for this procedure are baking soda and white vinegar. You can also use lemon juice, Borax, or salt mixed in with the liquid ingredients for extra potency.
White vinegar is an effective and very affordable way to clean your whole household, get rid of germs, kill bacteria, remove grease and finger prints from your appliances, and much more. Read about general cleaning with vinegar.
Follow these steps:
1. Pour about 1 to 2 gallons of hot water down the drain.
2. Pour about 1 to 2 cups of baking soda down the drain.
3. Pour about 1 to 2 cups of white vinegar down the drain. Let it sit for about 10 to 15 minutes.
4. Pour about 1 to 2 gallons of hot water again down the drain.
5. Rinse the drain with hot tap water for about 5 minutes to make sure it has been cleared out.
If using these natural remedies, written above, fail to work, try to use your sink plunger again. Don’t forget to cover the overflow hole. To increase the pressure, fill the tub or sink with water.
